==Definition==

The '''angular impulse''' created by a (possibly time-varying) [[torque]] over a time period is dfefined as the integral of the torque over the time period. In other words, the angular impulse created by a torque <math>\overline{tau}(t)</math> from time <math>t = t_1</math> to time <math>t = t_2</math> is defined as the integral:

<math>\int_{t_1}^{t_2} \overline{tau}(t) \, dt</math>
